Ideas for More Intimate Romances

• More "just being friends" scenes. I really liked the addition of "just being friends" (let's call them JBF) moments, and I was thinking this could be expanded on. Specifically:
•     Unlockable, single-use JBF moments on every planet. Each planet would start out with one of these, and then after each quest in that planet's quest line, another one or two would be unlocked. These would play out like small quests, and culminate in a conversation with a flirt option.
  
•     Repeatable JBF moments (aka "activities"). Sometimes, you just want to hang out with your LI, and these would offer the perfect opportunity for that. For example, you could take them and go for a few drinks at Vortex, head to an entertainment district on the Nexus to play some games, or even just watch a vid on the Tempest. As with the unlockable JBF moments, you'd unlock an activity or two every time you completed a major quest on a planet, and you'd get to repeat them as many times as you want, but with an individual cooldown on each activity so your LI doesn't get bored.
  
• The ability to hug or kiss them at any point. Bad stuff happens all the time in games like ME, so sometimes you just want to hug or kiss someone for comfort's sake. The ability to hug or kiss your LI at any point - yes, even during missions - would add an unrivaled personal touch. There wouldn't even have to be any dialogue; the gesture, and the emotions and events behind it, would be enough to sell the moment. However, characters would become weirded out by repeated kisses and hugs, resulting in a cooldown before you'd be able to hug or kiss them again.
  
• The ability to take the initiative (see what I did there? ;]) in the climactic romance scene. Ever notice how it's always the LI who takes the lead in climactic romance scenes? It's always them walking into your cabin to kick things off, and all you get to do is say "yeah, we'll bang" or "no, I don't want this." What if you got to take the lead, and prove your love to them in your own way? For example,

The scenario mentioned in the spoiler would be a clever twist on the original formula, and the ability to prove my love to her in such a way would have been deeply satisfying. Of course, for players uncomfortable with taking matters into their own hands like this, there would be the option to let the romance play out in a more traditional way, with the LI taking the lead in the final scene. 

Whew, that took a while to formulate! So, what do you guys think? I'd be interested to hear your thoughts on this, and I really hope at least one BW employee stumbles across this thread because I think these are some genuinely good ideas.
